i think the most important thing about polymarket and other prediction platforms is: truly, why should i give a shit about knowing the future for 90% of things
the big news items that get attention are, i guess, generally relevant (although increasingly it feels like they are becoming so only because of the existence of said markets possibly influencing them), but half the shit you can bet on with those sites is like. truly gambling addict shit
(and honestly, most of the big news items? not that hard to anticipate if you just follow the news and history?? in my experience??)
